Daily Outfit -- 2nd October 2007
[ 2 October 2007 ]
Turban from Sportsgirl. I’m not going to wear it every day, I promise, but I’m still obsessed with the high novelty factor!
Knotted pearls
New collage-print t-shirt from MNG, which, in Europe, is Mango. (I didn’t even know we had Mango here! The whole shop is pretty great & very reasonably priced.) The t-shirt is amazing, it has pictures of Clara Bow, fans, makeup, peacock feathers, pearls etc., but with a modern vibe. I love it, it’s so perfect for my new aesthetic!
Black cardigan from Ricochet, buttons in the back as well as the front
Black pleated skirt, also from Ricochet
My father’s grey trouser socks, pulled up in a faux-Prada fashion
New Rock boots
Silver bangles from Sportsgirl & Tarina Tarantino easter egg ring.
Also…
Hee!
Super-love & cupcakes,
Gala

you look great! for a crazy person…
hehe.
Jumping pictures are love.
Love the socks! I think the refined-till-it-hurts look is working really well here :-)
Gala, how do you manage to always look so cute when taking pictures of yourself? I always feel like a huge idiot setting up my tripod and trying to pose. My expression always looks like I want to kill someone, not like I love my outfit. I generally just feel like a lunatic, standing alone in my room taking pictures of myself. Do you think having a remote makes it a lot easier than waiting for a self-timer?
i just adore this outfit. you have also convinced me that i NEED a turban because at present i am trying to grow out my hair AND my fringe which is proving to be quite annoying – a turban seems the perfect way to hide it and still look cute!
Very School Girlish.
Love it gala
i agree with emily, you take amazing pictures with impressive regularity… i really like that expression in the first pic, not sure how to describe it though… thumbs up!
bluebird — Hush yo’ mouth! :P
Emily — Uh, well, I take hundreds of pictures at a time. I basically just hold down the button on the remote while I move, so there are lots of different shots & I just don’t use the ones I don’t like. Having a remote makes a huge difference since it means you can be spontaneous. I wrote an article on this ages ago… http://galadarling.com/advice/flattering-photographs !
anna — Yes, turbans are totally the way to go. Plus, only $20, that’s hard to beat!
oh very cute! I love this outfit. The last picture is awesome.
haha that last photo, the things you neighbours must see
ooh!! i really love that t-shirt!!! and im beggining to become obsessed with that turban!! i so want one now!!
haha, i love the last pic!!
me and my friends were taking jumping pics on our last sleepover. XD.
xxx
haha!! I love your last pose!!! yay for crazy/funny/exuberant pictures! :) I really like how you’re rocking that turban—totally awesome, imho! I found instructions in an old 1940s sewing book about how to make a turban, so I was thinking that I’d try it… :D
I’m loving, loving your new fashion direction. Maybe it’s because I’m partial to tennis chic, as I played in high school. But I love the bit of sophistication mixed with modern, cute, comfy. Adorable miss! I’m slowly trying to renew and reinvent my wardrobe as well. Wearing the same things from two years ago is not ideal when I’m not that same girl anymore hehe.
That shirt is amazing :) and the last pic jumping is hilarious hehe
In the last picture, you look like a superhero! I like the whole look of this outfit.
i love that shirt! it seems like your whole outifit has a sorta pink purple-ish tint to it….... or did you do that in photoshop? ha ha
you look absolutely you
in your outfit!
love your site too!
really really love your sense of style!
have a lovely one today!
i love you sense of style and everything :D really cheered up my day reading this and looking at the pics, i have a question though, im dying my hair purple again and am wondering if having the ends done pink will look right….hummmm
hug Vikx
Cute outfit! I love Tarina Tarantino. I just wish I could afford all the things I want from their website. x.x;
OMG! i LOVE this outift!!! totally quirky and something i’d totally wear!!!! love the pink hair btw!
this outfit would be so fucking amazing if you wore a different shirt & lost those boots. i love the skirt, turban & sockies.
sw-eet, i love the socks! i am wearing ones just like those right this moment (with a dress), so i feel cool…
i want a turban but it just wont work on me i think. My long hair pokes out awkwardly…
sarah — I know, aren’t they lucky? ;D I try to keep things interesting for the people in the office across the road…
jessabee — Oooh get a turban, we can be twins! Hee! Jumping pictures are awesome, I love them.
Casey — Haha, thank you ;> Yes, try sewing a turban, that would be fantastic! I’d love to hear how it goes.
Mae Jane — Aww, I can picture you slamming balls around, looking intense! I am quite majorly into the tennis chic look right now, which is unusual since it’s never been something I was interested in before. But, well, I guess it does show that my style is evolving, so that’s a good thing!
vanessa — I love it too! Merci!
Alice — Oh, but I am… didn’t you know? ;D
Christine — Thanks! Yeah, I changed the colours a bit because we have terrible lighting in our hallway (& they just painted the walls so that now, instead of white, they are kind of vomit colour… eww!).
writingchemistry — Hee, well, I do strive to be me! Kisses!
Vikx — Yay, glad to be of assistance :> I don’t know about pink & purple hair, it might look a bit much! Maybe purple with blonde or white ends would be cool, do you have a hairdresser friend you can throw some ideas around with?
Zombina — I love Ms. Tarantino too. It’s kind of like that “I’d like to buy the world a Coke” ad campaign, except I’d like to buy the world shiny baubles from Tarina Tarantino…
Kartini — Thank you very much darling!!
erin lynne — Oh well, I love it! :D
jess_xox — Yay, we match! Haha. I think you should try it out… push your hair back behind your ears & have it coming out the bottom.
wow so very very cute hehe you look awesome :)
I was in MNG the other day while on my break at work…...
and u got the top i was lusting over for a good 10 minutes before being sad that i had a week till pay day and left the shop.
jealous!
google ads is advertising ‘adult diaper wearing: find adult diapers and adult diaper retailers online’ in the sidebar today. dying with laughter! x
Its weird how something like socks owned by your dad or granddad can prove to be a very good looking thing on you. I’ve always found it to be just one of those cool unexplainable things in life. :)
